I'm with him - that could be nice. Only issue then is my speed would really stick out like a sore thumb to the bored officer at the side of the road. Maybe we need the idiots after all.
Maybe you missed the "no speed limits / higher speed limits as a result" part.

Honestly I don't see much reason to go faster than about 90 when freeway cruising, and I'm perfectly comfortable at 85 with traffic doing 80-85. So if they bumped up to say, 75-80 mph limits instead of the current 55-65 that's really all I'd need.

And then on long stretches like I5 and I10 you could just remove speed limits entirely or bump them up to like 100.
